Is your Domain Name is right for your web site?

if not still renew your old domain name and redirect to your new one for a couple of years just in case your clients have your past domain in their files. Keep track and ask them to make sure they change this information to your new domain name.  Remember times change and so should the look of your web sites and keeping up with these changes let’s your clients know you care about your business. Just like you do any thing. You need to keep up with the times.

Professional Web Designers Want YOU to Make Money

If they web host your web site they constantly keep an eye on where you are in the search engines. If you need changes they are there to help.

I need to point out that choosing a domain name that connects with your business is important because when a client or guest is trying to recall who you are it is easier for them to remember you if your domain name is connected with your business. Domain names with less letters are easier to remember. Complimentary colors are important for your domain and two or three should be the limit.

Professional looking Photography

We have suggested before if you do not have a large budget go to your local high school or junior college ask the photojournalist professor to recommend who in his class is best to take photo’s for you. I am sure the student would love to have your photo’s for his portfolio. A photo gallery is great for almost any business. This is much less and helps the student. Text.. we recommend 250 words of text especially for the first page and as many pages as you can describe the content. Five to ten pages for a small site is perfect. One with a form to contact you is really helpful.

This is not all

The information we can pass on but we hope that this is helpful. Remember a new web site is like buying new clothes, a new house, or a new car. It makes people stand up and take notice. We look forward to promoting your business new or updating one you have had for years. Contact the team at Bed and Breakfast Web Designs who design for almost any business. We are here to help.

Tripod

Using  “available light” or natural lighting is a great way to get emotion in your image, deep colors and softer light is beautiful but many times the picture will come out blurry. To combat this try using a tripod for a more steady shot and to let the camera have more time to collect light. If you are using a small camera or a traveling light try using a “table top” tripod they are inexpensive and can fit in your pocket.

Fill Flash

Having back lit photographs can ruin a great family portrait. This usually happens when people are standing in front of a window with the sun shinning through or in front of the sun outside. The best way to get the proper exposure is to use the “ Fill Flash”.  Almost all cameras have this feature (usually marked with a lightning bolt and a +/- icon) and will clean up almost any small lighting issue.

Rule of Thirds

This is a very important rule for setting up composition here is a idea on what it is:

“The rule of thirds just means rule of thumb. Common in art, photography and design. Rule of thirds is as the image is imagined and then divided into nine equal parts by two equals spaced horizontal lines, two equal spaced vertical lines, and the important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or intersections. The idea is that the technique should align a subject and create more tension, energy.”

Cropping

This can be one of the most under looked practices in all of photography and is an art form in its own right. Adding focus to the most dramatic parts of the photograph can really make an average picture a stunning in just a few minutes.

Size

Remember you can own the biggest and greatest camera in the world but it will not do you any good if you don’t take with you on your trips.  When selecting a camera find something that will suit you and is comfortable in your hands. If you don’t mind the size of a larger DSRL camera then try one of them. They are fast, fun, and can take stunning photos, even on the fully automatic modes. If lugging around a bigger camera doesn’t sound like much fun there is nothing wrong with the little point and shoots.
